HB150 - An Act To Amend Title 31 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Medical Coverage For All Delaware Children.
Krista Griffith, Sarah McBride, Debra J. Heffernan
Last updated over 1 year ago
23 Co-Sponsors
This bill is the Cover All Delaware Children Act. Many children who are undocumented do not have access to routine or preventative healthcare, including vaccinations and physicals, because they cannot afford the services. Instead they may rely upon emergency room visits when untreated conditions worsen. Providing publicly funded healthcare coverage to low-income children greatly improves their health and long-term outcomes. Medicaid coverage is linked to fewer chronic conditions, better overall health, improved oral health, and fewer hospitalizations and emergency room visits.

SB184 - An Act To Amend Title 18 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Use Of Certain Factors In Underwriting Private Insurance.
Kyle Evans Gay, William G. Bush, Kyra L. Hoffner
Last updated about 1 year ago
8 Co-Sponsors
Research has shown that certain underwriting factors used by insurers, while facially neutral, may have a disparate impact on protected classes. This bill seeks to address this disparate impact by prohibiting certain underwriting and rating factors, despite being correlative with loss, in homeowners and private passenger motor vehicle insurance policies. This bill would specifically prohibit an insurers consideration of an insureds or proposed insureds (i) non-pending arrests, charges and indictments that do not result in conviction, (ii) convictions unrelated to fraud or the risk being insured, or (iii) drivers license suspensions or revocations for non-driving related reasons. This bill also corrects an incorrect statutory reference in current law.

HB212 - An Act To Amend Title 25 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Manufactured Housing.
Valerie J. Longhurst, Marie Pinkney, Sherry Dorsey Walker
Last updated 23 days ago
12 Co-Sponsors
House Substitute No. 2 to House Bill 212 prohibits manufactured home community owners from increasing rent if the rent was increased by 5 percent or more the previous year or rental period, instead permitting an increase capped at 3 percent. This Act does not prohibit a community owner from increasing rent to market rent in phases as called for in current law, even if doing so would otherwise violate the prohibition on increasing rent after a 5 percent or more increase. It also allows a greater increase where more than 50% of the homeowners use the property as a second residence. This Act clarifies that penalties of rent reduction and repayment of excess rent will be imposed for a community owner who increases rent in violation of any provision of Title 25, Chapter 70.
